the summary of RC Toulon’s defeat against Munster

The matter is becoming more complicated for the RCT. Opposed to the Irish from Munster on the occasion of the third and penultimate day of the group stage of this Champions Cup, Toulon logically lost on Saturday January 13, despite a good start. While they led by 10 points until the half hour mark thanks to a try from Samoan Duncan Paia’aua perfectly led by Jiuta Wainiqolo (23rd, 10-0), the Var experienced a guilty air gap at the end of the first period, conceding 17 points in twelve minutes.

Ahead at the break after two incursions into the Toulon goal by Alex Nankivell (31st, 10-10) and Simon Zebo (37th, 13-17), Munster continued its momentum upon returning from the locker room, scoring a new try from Thomas Ahern (47th, 13-22), validated despite a suspicion of going forward from one of his teammates. If Cornell Du Preez revived the locals after good work from Melvyn Jaminet (54th, 18-22), Calvin Nash put an end to the hopes of the public at the Mayol stadium half an hour from the end with the bonus try on the side Irish (59th, 18-29). With this result, Toulon remains last in its group and will play for its place in the competition during the last match next Friday, on the Glasgow Warriors pitch.
